As long as the actions are triggered by requests to the api that shouldn't be an issue. There's no limitation on outgoing messages compared to other tiers.

This would only be an issue if you would be running a background task or something similar, because the free (and shared) tier can't be always active. They only start up for requests and unload again when there's no traffic.
